Stinker finds the little quiltlet comfortable.
I made Drop Dead Fred several years ago.
I didn't make a single Halloween creature this year. Spooky.
Last year, I made quite a few things, including the frame and black cat, but this year...nada.
This year, I only pulled out a few decorations.
Much less to put away.

Books/Reading: An Extravagant Death by Charles Finch. "Another great entry in the Charles Lenox historical mystery series. In addition to the mystery plot, I learned the origin of the word "shrapnel" and the phrase "heard it through the grapevine." Lt. Henry Shrapnel invented an artillery shell that fragmented in 1803 and the Grapevine Tavern in N.Y. was a place where Union officers and Confederate spies mingled during the Civil War. Thus, the source of news, information, gossip, and rumors was through the Grapevine." (from my review, scheduled for closer to publication on my other blog)
An interesting article: My Aunt's favorite penpal--Ruth Bader Ginsberg by Beth Seidel.
